Apply from 1 March 2015 for studies in 2016

Owing to the large number of applications received every year, prospective students are encouraged to apply for studies in 2016 as soon as possible from 1 March. If you are interested in residence placement, you should apply as soon as possible as the demand for residence accommodation exceeds the availability and admission to a study programme can thus not guarantee placement in a residence.

Should you not be able to apply online, you may send your completed application form together with the required supporting documents, by registered mail to:

University of Pretoria
Client Service Centre
Private Bag X20
Hatfield 0028
South Africa

Important: Please keep the tracking number of your registered mail for reference purposes.
Please note that the application form provides for a first and second choice of study programme. It is strongly recommended that you also indicate a second choice study programme on your application form. It is not advisable to apply for two selection programmes as your first and second choice. Selection programmes are study programmes with early closing dates and limited space and must preferably be indicated as first choice on your application form. It is particularly important to note that applications for admission to any of the study programmes in the Faculty of Health Sciences and to the selection programmes Bsc Architecture or BSc Interior Architecture in the Faculty of Engineering, Built Environment and Information Technology, will only be considered if the relevant study programme is indicated as a first choice on your application form.

Owing to constraints on the facilities of the University, the intake of students in all the study programmes is limited. It may even be the case that quotas are reached long before the closing dates. Please note that meeting the minimum requirements of a study programme, does not guarantee your admission.

Once your application form has been processed, you will receive an eight-digit UP student number. You may follow the progress of your application online via the UP Portal (Student Centre). Visit www.up.ac.za/portal.
You are welcome to contact the JuniorTukkie Office if you need assistance.
